Hey guys, newbie with a few questions about reamping here.
As I understand, the basic setup is as follows:
Guitar into DI box, splits signal into two. One to amp to hear while playing and mic up if you want. One clean DI signal to the mixer/interface for the later reamping.
And then later on, out of the mixer/interface into a reamp box, into the amp to record.
I heard I need a balanced cable between the interface and reamp box - correct?
I will be using a Firestudio Project at home for this - do the outputs on that actually take balanced cables? I presume so. Any way to check?
Finally, the Firestudio Project actually has two Instrument Inputs which as I understand are designed to eliminate the need for a DI box. Does this mean that I could effectively reamp with only a reamp box?
I understand this would mean I obviously don't have the split signal i.e. I'd be recording the DI track without hearing from my amp. But I could use a guitar amp sim on the PC. OR could I actually run the output LIVE into the reamp box into my amp while recording the DI track? Basically, do I need a DI box?
Thanks for any help you can give
